Bruised Face and Ego

I was told there may be small bruising. I had 4 huge bruises the size of quarters - they lasted for over a week. I did not want to be seen by anyone - especially people I knew who would most definetly ask "What Happened?" It was a horrible experience for me. Now, the bruising is gone - I do have lumps - yes it does look slightly better than before but it was not worth it
